Fighting colon cancer: help Hudson afford treatment in Swansea
8 rounds of treatment are planned at Swansea Cancer Centre; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Hudson was diagnosed with colon cancer in April. The oncology team at Swansea Cancer Centre has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in June. He will be away from work for about 8 weeks.
Hudson is 47, worked as a taxi driver until April, and has always been the one who looks after everyone else. Now it's our turn to look after him.
Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, trips to Swansea Cancer Centre 3 times a week, and the income the family has lost add up quickly.
We've already sold what we could and have begun borrowing for groceries. Every kindness from you takes weight off his shoulders.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $9,600 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $6,250
• Scans and lab work: $1,500
• Transport to Swansea Cancer Centre: $380
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $340
• Household costs while unable to work: $1,130
